After receiving the imperial edict of emperor ningzong, Chen Wenduan did not dare to be careless and made very detailed preparations in advance because it was the first time for him to deal with affairs in other places as an imperial envoy.

At the same time, considering that the place he went to was not far from the border between song and Jin, there were often spies from the state of Jin. In order to ensure safety, Chen Wenduan arranged for Chen Ming to dress as a man to protect himself.

After doing these things well, Chen Wenduan chose an auspicious day and set out.

Chen Wenduan and his sister had nothing to do on the way, so they chatted while walking.

Chen Ming asked Chen Wenduan, "brother, this time we are going to the Huaixi garrison. Please tell me about the Huaixi garrison."

"Brother ha, I'm not interested in talking about these important events today. I'm not interested in your sister's peace talk." Chen Wenduan said.

After that, Chen Wenduan asked Chen Ming, "sister, do you know the four famous generals of Zhongxing after the great song dynasty moved to the south?"

Hearing Chen Wenduan ask himself this, Chen Ming said: "the storyteller of this teahouse often says that I naturally know, not Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Liu Shiguang."

"You don't read much, but you learn a lot from Mr. Shuo Shu." Chen Wenduan said with a smile.

After that, Chen Wenduan said to Chen Ming, "sister, you're right. The four generals of Zhongxing are really the ones you said. Among them, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and Liu Shiguang were the people who followed Emperor Gaozong of the great song dynasty before he ascended the throne. After Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne of God, these three people naturally gained great importance;

to Shaoxing of the great song dynasty In four years, with the efforts of these famous generals, the military strength of our song dynasty was greatly enhanced;

at the same time, the Emperor Gaozong of our song dynasty was also actively preparing for the northern expedition. In October of the fourth year of Shaoxing, he moved from Lin'an to Suzhou. In a moment, the morale of Our Song Dynasty's army and people were greatly stimulated;

in the sixth year of Shaoxing, our song dynasty was greatly promoted The Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty arrived in Jiankang again, and the then affiliated Liu Yu regime of the Jin state was very scared after hearing the news, so they pretended to have the help of the Jin people, and took the initiative to launch an attack on the great song regime;

just at this time, some people in the great song court were frightened by the Jin people, and the representative was Zuo Prime Minister of the great song dynasty When Liu Yu's puppet regime and Jin people wanted to attack the Song Dynasty's regime together, they immediately panicked and ordered all the people of Song Dynasty to retreat from attack to defense.

however, Zhang Jun, the then deputy secretary in chief, thought that Liu Yu's puppet regime was in fact strong outside but weak in the middle, and Jin people had lost confidence in Liu Yu's regime, so they would not necessarily send troops to help them, Not only should the Song Dynasty not retreat, but it should gather its own troops to launch a greater attack on the enemy forces;

our Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty was very bold and insightful at that time, and Zhang Junyou was a confidant when he did not ascend the throne of God in the past, so he supported Zhang Jun's strategy;

in this way, the Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty was very brave and insightful Under the support and the correct command of Zhang Jun, the army of the Song Dynasty won the famous victory in otang, which made the Jin people scared up to now;

however, when the Song Dynasty achieved a series of brilliant military victories on the outside, there were serious cracks inside the generals of the Song Dynasty. The main reason is that Zhang Ding, the Prime Minister of Zuo, has more and more divergences on the strategy of Jin. In the court, as long as it is Zhang Jun's Memorial, Zhang Ding, the Prime Minister of Zuo, will certainly strongly oppose it; on the contrary, as long as it is Zhang Ding's Memorial, Zhang Jun will absolutely not be able to get through it.

in addition, there are a group of trusted officials under both of them, who will do their best for their own interests In this case, Emperor Gaozong had to remove Zhang Ding from his post as prime minister and let him serve as the magistrate of Shaoxing;

at the same time, Zhang Jun was promoted to be Prime Minister of our song dynasty, so Zhang Jun became one person in Our Song Dynasty In the history of Song Dynasty, it is very rare for us to be a powerful minister under ten thousand people, and as a prime minister, we also have the power to lead the army. Our Song Dynasty has always been very strict in guarding against the generals of the unified army;

after Zhang Jun won a decisive victory in the internal power struggle of the Song Dynasty, at this time, after a series of victories, the troops stationed in other areas of our song dynasty slowly leaked out a lot of problems;

the most important one was that several elite troops at that time saw no one else

sometimes, Liu Shizong, as a general of the emperor, didn't regard the emperor's support as a serious problem After the Song Dynasty moved to the south, one of the four famous generals in Zhongxing was the first one to become a governor of the four governments. Among his 50000 subordinates, Wang de was a powerful general in the army. However, since he had been stationed in Huaixi for a long time, his enterprising spirit gradually lost. He only knew how to make fun of himself all day long, and the military discipline became relaxed;In this case, if we want to thoroughly rectify the Huaixi garrison, we have to start with Liu Shiguang. As the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, Zhang Jun asked Emperor Gaozong to dismiss Liu Shiguang, and divided Liu Shiguang's army into six parts, led by his former Ministry;

but after the army was separated, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei wanted to bring Liu Shiguang's army into their own command, but they all ignored the former army In this way, under the struggle of various forces, Liu Shiguang's army in the past was terrified and thought that they were no longer trusted by the imperial court. Just at this time, Liu Yu's puppet regime stirred up dissension and seduced some of Liu Shiguang's army generals with high officials and high salaries On August 8, 2000, Wang Shizhong, a former subordinate of Liu Shiguang, led an army of more than 40000 people and hundreds of thousands of people to surrender to the puppet regime of Liu Yu. As a result, most areas of Western Huaihe became an unguarded border for a while, and the situation was very critical. This is the famous Huaixi mutiny in the history of Song Dynasty. “
